Hehe, actually, I'm likely unscrupulous enough to use psychological warfare on my opponent.
The right blouse can be very distracting.

Hmm...this has possibilities. Strip wargaming, anyone? [:D]

Depends on the attractiveness of the opponent? Maybe? Am I allowed to say that?

Well let's be honest here. If Jenna or Alison came around to the house one day and said, "look warspite, I know your eyesight is not the best but we are really looking to get into World In Flames Collectors Edition and would like you to help us learn the game", then yes I'm sure I would struggle through with cardboard as best I could.....
Your wife would put you in a big cardboard box? [&:]

No she would be okay - George Clooney would probably pop round at the same time to ask her if she wanted a game of Kerplunk....

Hmm... I can take a tablet along with bunch of games easier than a BattleTech game box, Army Transport box, and stack of record sheets and hard-cover rule books. And that is what I have done more often as of late. Doesn't matter either way if I don't get anyone to play [:(]

I'm actually aware of the Uboat board game, solitaire. I don't know, though, if it is for me.

While you are there Gilmer, if you are identical to the erudite American on You Tube can I thank you for somehow breaking through my Neanderthal like brain and mental block to understand (I think!) the Ageod systems in Rise of Prussia/30 Years War etc.
About a decade later than the rest of the world I am just about to order one of the above titles.
You have a gift for clear explanation.
Cheers

I would rather push cardboard.
Same here, I like the interaction from in-person OTB play.
Having the computer nearby, to help explain to new flesh how the game can play out,
is very useful for garnering interest.
I think much about "cardboard, or digitized?" and I always wind up with, "Why not both?"
Anyway, just thought I would throw in there on that.
Have a great gaming day!!

Yes, I'm the same guy. Thank you for your compliment! I do these videos to hopefully learn something myself, but primarily to help others learn about the game.
